Overview

Editor's Review: Your Next Random-Orbit Sander

review date: September 1, 2004

This is an aggressive right-angle sander at a great price. The dust bag is good, but it crowds the body grip. The on/off switch was difficult to actuate while the tester was wearing gloves. The accessory vacuum adapter works well.
